Welcome to the Business Office

Everything you need to know about understanding your bill, making your payments, and getting refunds is available through this site. As students and parents, you will be conducting business with our office over the next several years. We would like to make your experience a pleasant one. In order to alleviate confusion about payment schedules, payment methods, and other important issues, we have created a web-site packed with useful information.

Purpose of the Business Office

The Business Office is responsible for billing and collecting tuition, fees, campus housing, and other university-related charges. The office also invoices third-party agencies, audits MSU student accounts, and processes student refunds. Our office is also responsible for processing deposits for university departments. We hope you find the information here useful. We are also interested in your experiences and welcome any feedback.

When you set up a payment/refund profile, you must login each semester to keep your profile active. If not, your profile will be at risk of being deleted. You will set up a refund profile by logging into your portal at my.msutexas.edu and clicking on the Touchnet link. Once you've done that, you can follow the prompts to set up a Refund Profile.

Anyone using the TouchNet Paypath system for credit card payments will pay a convenience fee of 2.85% beginning May 1, 2018.

Following the end of the fixed rate period, the designated tuition rate will default to the current incoming freshman designated tuition rate at the time and will no longer be fixed beyond four consecutive semesters. For semesters after Fall 2014, only new and transfer students will be eligible for 16 semesters of fixed rate designated tuition. Re-enrolling students not enrolled Spring or Summer 2014, who return to MSU will be charged the same designated tuition as the current rate for incoming freshmen each academic year.

There will be a $100 reinstatement fee for students who are voided out of the university system due to non-payment. To be reinstated, students must pay a $25 late registration fee, as well as a $100 reinstatement fee plus all tuition owed for the semester from which they were dropped.
